68. I also don't have exact figures
at the top of my head and am too lazy to research it further, but I do remember it wasn't that long ago (within the last 10 years) when the cap on female actresses took an enormous leap to around $12 million per movie. But overall, I think I'm going to amend my response to the first post by saying that I don't have any control over what a CEO or doctor makes... but where I do have control, which is attending entertainment events like games, movies, concerts, etc., then I can voice my opinion on their overly-inflated income by not attending the events. And I will never agree that paying entertainment figures millions and millions of dollars for their talent and time is in direct proportion to reality. By doing so, we are making demi-Gods out of them and we are elevating them to a status that sets the standard on what we, as Americans, are viewed as placing value on. But that's just my opinion.
